Are your company’s Internet sites served through the Apache Internet browser? If so, are they loaded as temporarily as you want? Alternatively, you can load more curtains on the stage or use a convenient Apache module (created through Google) that is used to optimize Internet pages.
This module is called mod_pagespeed, which compresses parts such as javascript, CSS, JPEG and PNG files, so that your pages load faster.
I will show you how to install this module and how to access your Internet administration page.

The only things that are needed for this in the paintings are a server running the Apache Internet browser and a user with sudo privileges. I will demonstrate this using the Ubuntu Server 18.04 platform. If you are using another platform, you will want to replace the module installation process.
If you can do this on a server running Apache, install it. On Ubuntu Server, Apache is installed with a command for singles. Connect to your server and run the command:
Once this command is complete, start and power on the server with the commands:
With Apache up and running, it’s time to install mod_pagespeed.

To turn on the advertising phone panel, open the configuration log with the command:
Scroll down the page and look for sections that begin with:
And:
In those two sections, you’ll want to load the following line in Allow from 127.0.0.1:
Once this is resolved, save and close the file. Restart Apache with the command:
Point an Internet browser to http://SERVER_IP/pagespeed_admin/ (where SERVER_IP is the IP address of the server hosting Apache). You will be presented with the mod_pagespeed ad management panel (Figure B).

And that’s all there is to it. Enjoy the new loading speed of your pages.
